Abstract: I have to laugh at how some ideas that flop get re-spun as the next big thing once technology catches up with the concept. For example, Microsoft pushed the idea of a tablet PC years before Apple popularized it. Back in 2001, the first list of specificati...

Tiny form factor. HDMI and DisplayPort outputs. USB 3.0. Haswell technology.
Price does not include storage or RAM. Limited expandability. Sluggish graphics performance
Intel's newest NUC (Next Unit of Computing) Kit D54250WYK improves on the original version by offering more connectivity features and the latest processor technology. You'll still have to supply many of your own components though....

So small. Much tiny, Haswell CPU and HD 5000 GPU keeps power consumption relatively low while offering good performance, and these offer plenty of video encoding and decoding features that make it good for HTPC use, Easy to assemble, Nice range of multi-m
Not as cost-effective as building your own, A quad-core option could make this an attractive mini-server, but it doesn't have one, Very limited expandability
From the HTPC perspective, it is troubling that HDMI audio still needs careful configuration in XBMC 12.3. For bitstreaming to work, XBMC has to be configured with WASAPI and not Direct Sound. The symptoms are the same as the Netflix HD audio issue. It is...
The NUC evolution continues, with the Haswell i5-4250 in this D54250WYK providing incremental savings in power and similar boosts in performance over last year's Ivy Bridge i3-3217U in the NUC DC3217BY. An idle power level of just 6W and typical use p...
SiSoftware Sandra 2013 w/ DDR3L 1600MHz: SiSoftware Sandra 2013 w/ DDR3L 1600MHz: Sandra 2013 showed that the NUC went from having 17.5 GB/s of memory bandwidth at 1600MHz up to 19.7 GB/s with the 1866MHz overclock. This is a 12.5% performance improve...
We were impressed by the Ivy Bridge powered NUC family last year, but there were a few minor issues that needed to be dealt with. The major issue last year was with heat and Intel quickly released newer revisions that had thermal pads to help disperse the...
Abstract: The NUC uses a soldered in Core i5-4250U – a dual core CPU that can run up to 2.6 GHz and has a 15W TDP. You do need to add in your own RAM and HDD – up to 16GB of DDR3 and a SATA 3 2.5” or mSATA SSD. If you want Wi-Fi, the NUC has the cables and antenna...
4th gen Core i5 CPU, Small form factor, Good selection of ports, plus infrared sensor, Easy to assemble
HDMI port not full-sized, Lacks SD card slot, RRP is a tad high
Intel's NUC barebones kit is a tiny, yet powerful computer thanks to its fourth-generation Intel Core i5 CPU, and it's suitable for home users who want to build up a nice little home theater PC. It features a good selection of ports, though you might have...

Intel's NUC has become my new everyday machine, it's as simple as that *mic drop*. But seriously, it has. The Core i5 processor, with 16GB of RAM, an mSATA SSD and a plethora of connectivity options, you can't go past the new NUC. If you took away a few ...
